Matthew D. Eaton, Ph.D.


Department of Natural Sciences
Chemistry

Education

B.S. in Chemistry, Northeastern University, Boston, Massachusetts, USA, 2015
Ph.D. in Materials Science & Engineering, Northwestern University, Evanston, Illinois, USA, 2020

Practice Areas

  • Matt's thesis work focused on the measurement of local, nanoscale mechanical and fracture properties of polymers, polymer blends, and polymer composites using characterization tools such as atomic force microscopy, nanoindentation, quasi-static toughness testing, dynamic mechanical analysis, and high-frequency rheometry.
  • Currently, he researches the mechanical properties of ring-functionalized carbon nanotube polymer composites at IMDEA Nanocienca as a postdoctoral researcher in order to develop high performance polymer composites.
